Bachelor-esque dating shows have been a reality television staple for over the past decade. And just when you thought you’ve seen it all, another random element is tossed into the initially simplistic plot. This time around, WE tv has decided to throw in an African-American bachelor, his mama and a pastor to bring you their new series, “Match Made in Heaven.”
The competitive dating show will follow college-football-star-turned-real-estate-agent, Shawn Bullard, on his quest to find true love in a house full of twenty-four women vying for his heart. Assisting Shawn in his quest, will be pastor and spiritual advisor to the Indianapolis Colts, Ken Johnson. Apparently, both Ken and Shawn’s mom will have influence over the selection process. WE tv describes the series:
“In each of the eight hour-long episodes, the bevy of beauties will face temptation at every turn. From the sweet girl next door to the smoking hot vixen; the polished career women to the innocent virgin; no one is immune to temptation. In this proverbial Garden of Eden, the ladies are constantly met with the opportunity to make a choice between good and evil in their quest for Shawn’s love. Should they undermine their fellow housemates to win him over? Or take the high road and trust in their connection with him? Does ‘do unto others’ have an alternate meaning? Will Shawn be tempted to take a bite of the forbidden fruit these women have to offer? Or will Pastor Ken and Mama Bullard be able to guide Shawn into the light so he can pick the right girl to spend the rest of his life with?”
